Does http://en.miui.com/thread-254886-1-1.html work for the Redmi 3 as well?
Or http://forum.xda-developers.com/mi-4c/general/guide-unlocking-mi4c-bl-verification-t3336779 ?
(or can they be made to work with the Redmi 3?)
Is it safe to assume that flashing unlocked redmi3 emmc_appsboot.mbn will help?
Haven't tested it though

I'm also hoping for an answer to this. Really considering buying this phone tomorrow, but I don't want to have to request the privilege of using something I bought the way I want to.
All the information I have found so far mostly talks about using the official unlocking method, but then there are bits of other information that suggest you may be able to get around this, with nothing concretely stating it.

I honestly dont get whats the problem. Request unlock today, order it tomorrow. By the time you will get your phone, you will also get the permission

I'm hoping to buy the phone in person tomorrow, so it's not likely I'd get my code in time. Also I'm entirely against this practice of begging to use your own purchased hardware in the way you choose.

Its not begging. It's a security feature For the example, if someone steals your phone, they wont be able to easily take off all the locks to use/sell it. So yeah, its a great solution and one can always wait a bit.

Some people have had their requests denied, it's begging. I appreciate the security concern, but that's not reason enough to lock people out of their OWN phones, just because you want to lock OTHER people out of them. I'd hardly call it a great solution, best solution would be to have the bootloader unlocked and let us lock it by choice which THEN requires a hassle to unlock.

You do realize that most people don't care about that, hence it is locked by default? I do not see how it is great solution to unlock it by default
About denying it, some people dont put in a proper reason (or give some random reason) why they want to unlock their phones, so Xiaomi keeps the idiots away from bricking their phones (I suggest you looking at miui forums. People keep bricking their phones).

Another user seems to have mentioned that the chances of getting an approval has to do with making use of the Mi account so......
And how is 'most people don't care about that' a good argument? Protecting them from thieves (and themselves, I guess, as you've also said) is a much better reason/excuse.
Anyway the world of smartphones went well with flagships (, etc) using unlocked booloaders for years so why is the change suddenly needed?

Oh, that user was just talking non-sense. I registered on miui, I requested permission (did not even have phone at a time) and I got that permission few days later after I received phone.
How is it a bad argument? Most people are just normal users. They do not care about roms, recoveries and stuff like that. They just want a working phone and, if xiaomi would open a massive security hole by default, it would be bad.
How many flagship devices have you owned, if you don't mind me asking? The last time I checked, pretty much all bootloader's are locked by default (even Google Nexus phones are).
I'd be interested in this, whilst I agree that the bootloader should be locked the process should be far more simple than what Xiaomi currently offers.

Agreed. Though I would say if people do want to unlock without approval that is at both the owner's right and risk. Especially here on XDA as opposed to the MIUI forums.

Agreed. But anyone who bought that phone signed up for this. That's the main reason why I'm trying to calm everyone down
And honestly, comments which are saying that "we have to beg for permission" are ridiculous. If you really want to unlock the phone, you will wait for those 10 days. It is really not that bad. Plus, you will get a bit more friendly with MIUI, which I actually use as my main driver and I honestly believe that it is not that bad

Well, there I think we disagree. Some will want to use their phone asap or not want to be bound by Xiaomi's restrictions, rightly or wrongly. If there is a method to bypass it XDA would be the place to publish, test and feedback on it, with the usual disclaimer about bricking/losing the device.
And speaking personally, I want to throw CM/stock android onto my Redmi 3 as soon as I get it. I'll either try the workaround or wait, using my old phone instead.

I'll have to disagree here as well. If that was to happen (some sort of bootloader lock bypasser) it would happen in chinese forums, where most of the stuff comes from anyway. If you take a look at all the roms/recoveries published in here, they are, mostly, a reposts from miui forums.
And considering that every gold member on miui forums, who are actual devs, get priority for bootloader unlock (get key in like three days), they really will not bother developing something like that. Its just so much unnecessary hassle. They might as well just keep investing their time into fixing bugs on current custom roms
Honestly, we could continue this discussion for days. But currently, the only way to get your bootloader unlocked faster is becoming a gold member on miui forums or just waiting for ten days.
Any other discussion on this topic is not worth anything. We will give hundreds (or even thousands) of reasons why they should do things differently, but they will still stick with their current policies. Just like MediaTek does. They are supposed to releases their sources, but they won't. And nobody can do anything about that.
So I will return to my previous point. Anyone who bought this phone knew Xiaomi's policies. If someone does not like that, they can always buy phone from a well known brands. Of course, paying at least two times the price of what we are paying for this phone.
After all, I dont mind paying less and waiting 10 days for the well spec'd phone rather than paying twice and get my bootloader instantly unlocked.

I wouldn't end that statement with "sorry". If he just bought it like that, he's not going to be the least bit disappointed with having to reset it in order to make it work. Just being able to make it work is all he's after. I'm sure he's ecstatic to know that he can

I may be a bit biased because I've rootedand customized phones since the D1, when it was MUCH harder than it it currently. But I have always found ODIN very easy to use. In reality, I'm sure the OP could look up a video on youtube on how to use ODIN and get his phone working in like 20 min (minus download/setup times for ODIN, ROM, etc.). And I'm sure he saved a bundle buying it like that. He just needs to pray it's not IMEI locked on top of it, or all that effort will have been wasted

Try flashing TWRP in bootloader mode, using fastboot. It will confirm if OEM locking was enabled or not. If it is enabled

EDIT (Important): Could someone who requested an unlock please look at http://forum.xda-developers.com/axon-7/how-to/to-unlock-bootloader-hold-help-t3437617/page1 . This would help develop for this phone much faster. Please do the steps mentioned before updating.
Seems pretty guaranteed actually all the CSRs were apparently misinformed and the one of the head forum CSRs is furious about this and seems like pretty much guaranteed unlock in a reply to the post above.

Sweet...
Definitely hope we get some good roms with the bootloaders unlocked.
Had my Axon 7 for a couple weeks now, live in Oz and chinese version works fine here, and it's a pretty sweet deal. Got an Antutu benchmark of almost 142000 edging out the 1+3 by a few hundred points....
My only gripe is the virtual assistant software is only available in Chinese...
If the bootloader is unlocked I should be able to change to WW firmware fixing this....

Awesome! With the confusion over whether Passport 2.0 applies to Newegg purchases or if it is final/replacement-only, I was starting to worry that I may be need to cancel my preorder just to be safe. But if the bootloader is going to be unlocked, frankly that seals the deal for me. As far as I can tell, the only issue left is low-light camera performance, but honestly, with all the positives for this phone it isn't a huge tradeoff.
I just hope the late notice hasn't turned off developers of custom roms and root/recovery builders.
Yea bootloader unlock deal was making me doubt this phone, I really hope devs are still attarcted to this too. A lot of the reviews on the ZTE forums say that manual mode is much better in low light so it is most likely a software bug.

Also on the newegg product page under Warranty & Returns it states you can return for refund before 30 days but a restocking fee may be applied so you are probably fine if you want to try out the device but you might want to check with newegg just in case.

Google translate, does a less than stellar job on it.
What's interesting about the ZTE Chinese forums is that you can download the full ROM updates, which you can also do from ztedevices.com, but you can't do any of it for US based devices.
That's the link, I think. My mate translates for me. I don't speak Chinese and their slang and technical terms aren't fit for Google translation
Hopefully it arrives by the 15th, so I'll know if I should cancel my pre-order Grey model.

I believe that this is the topic.
But nothing too constructive as far as google translate can take me... As far as i could understand, it's just someone that tought the OEM Unlock menu appeared with the last update (B07) but it was already there and does nothing (a lot of interpretation in my traduction of the garbage google gave me^^).
So I have had this device for a few days and have tried every PC and apk one click method and to no success have I rooted this device. The hardware specs are fantastic for a device this affordable and I've never seen one like it for this price. If root could be developed, this would be a great device for developers to test root applications and test their Roms. The audio quality for wired headsets isnt very likeable and doesn't have very much increase. I would like to see a bootloader unlock. Custom kernel and a CyanogenMod 13 rom for this device and am willing to pay any developers who think they can crack the device 200$ over PayPal to get this device going! Pm me and drop some comments to tell me weather you think you can do it or not.
Thanks in advance for any help and progress!

I'm sure theres a back door to unlock it. It's a T.mobile device normally there good about unlocked bootloaders but it appears it's ZTE not T.mobile so. If the note 4 gets the BL unlocked i'm sure it'll happen for the ZTE.
Hrm
I'm looking forward to a bootloader unlock. I bought the phone off a buddy and can't wait to do some bootloader fooling around with it.
I made the mistake of updating to the latest ZTE update for the MetroPCS one but of course instantly disabled all the MetroPCS apps preloaded.
Any word?
Me too....
My z981 is freezing and I get numerous system ui not responding, chrome not responding, all apps basically have to reboot it, after a little while does it again. Any news on a root?
No one can make a rom for ZTE V9820
I think all hope is lost on this phone. The only solution now is to abamdon it altogether and not ever buy anything else from ZTE.
I will give my ZMAX Pro z981 for Research
I have a ZTE ZMAX Pro, I am willing to submit for root research if anybody is willing to trade a Samsung phone with at least a 5.7 inch display.
Today while messing with my Google Nexus Player I came across this.
It's a disclaimer with what might be some extremely useful information. I took a picture.

I just bought a zmax pro Mon.day for $30, by adding a line=$50/mo for 2 lines.
I can drop the 2nd service in a month and port my number to the ZTE later.
I also refused/discarded the OTA to B20, it's on B14 right now. Been playing with and liking this phone but time will tell how well it continues to behave.
Wait, you want to trade a $30 ZTE and get a $500 Samsung in return? That's funny

Ideally it works that way, unfortunately often it doesn't. I'm growing tired of the game, I hope new people step forward soon.

I mean, we have root. It's just a matter of getting secure boot out of our way. I would be more than happy to send you an invite to our server jcase if you want to know more... We could use someone with actual experience.
Have you got any farther?
Lol this is an old thread but i just found a zmax pro on the side of the rode riding my fixie. Only zte phone i liked was the original zmax back in 2016 i think had that thing running lollipop custom rom. I see zte still makes it hard to root phones and modify what you want tho. Guess i could care less about profiting or even keeping this thing as a backup. Currently trying to get in touch with the owners wife and daughter in his contacts.
i change this garbage phone zte max pro 981 to galaxy s9 plus
and same problem the phone dont have any root really phone company in usa are garbage other country dont do any of that its just in usa
